Obedience
By: Miracle Man
5/17/2021

Obedience demonstrates our true love for God,
by keeping His commandments on the path we trod.
Only God knows, how and when, our life will end,
the steps that we’ll take and the rules we’ll bend.
God alone knows, a heart and mind, for certain,
and His judgment looms beyond death’s curtain.
But forgiveness awaits for our life’s wrong choices,
and each time one repents, all Heaven rejoices.


Ephesians 6: 1-3
6 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
2 Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;
3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.

Premium Member Faithfulness, Parable of the Talents

The Parable of The Talents speaks to whomever we might be.                                                                                       Investments are not 'trivial' and must not be allowed to rust.                                                                             Whether rich or poor, male or female, slave or free,                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            God has given certain gifts to each of us.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

Father knows best how to distribute His gifts and He loves us all.                                                     There's no greater choice than for us to put them to their best use.                                                                                                                                                         It should not matter whether the endowment to us are large or small.                                                                                                                                       It appears in the parable that God has a low tolerance for an excuse.           

There is no doubt that God recognizes and rewards fruitfulness.                                                                                                         History shows that God always demonstrates His goodness,                                                but the lesson of 'The Talents Parable' is about faithfulness.                                                                                                                            God's desire is that we use our gift and share in His happiness.

Rhyme God

Enter the Everest that devastates 
as he never ever rests and demonstrates 
his quick wit picnic of traits that place 
with lickety split flicks on the page 
the tricks of a contortionist wrist that emits embers at pace 
as he commits and performs on the centre stage 
with the impact of a storm from the biblical age 
the act of an adorned prolific rampage. 
Irresistible talent abundantly apparent 
you thought you'd witnessed 
ability but until now you hadn't 
when the rest in the business 
appear to be unskilled 
and transparent 
as their best rhymes diminish 
right here to be unfulfilled 
and redundant 
thus divested of finesse 
while it's clear to see you're thrilled 
in this moment.

Premium Member Divine Parents

Who is like the Sun
who comes riding his white steed
the leader of the holy ones
and of his people Abram's seed
 
I will hold you because it is what you need
I will listen above all others I exceed
when I arrive it will      be to take you home
a place of Love          where you will never be alone
 
I'll give you children who            are needing your affection
with the ability       to give them all protection
this is the home                           that contains abundant joy
where happiness                     reaches every girl and boy
 
In this home           no child will ever hunger
suffer any pain                          or any kind of danger
they will be able     to run the fields wild
play with the animals                  like every dreaming child
 
Every day                                   will be a new adventure
not dependant                           on some monetary venture
every family          of the nations       has this task
to learn of Loves                      requirements at last
 
Earth was meant                  to be a place of beauty
not a hard line of unconsidered duty
where people hate            learning how to give
but free to Love            and reaching out to live
 
We have painted the pictures          over many century
for your consideration                 of what will come to be
you have the choice      of what you listen to
and of your actions                     in everything you do
 
For all existing                  must learn a single Law
that Love must cover        everyone to exist at all
every example that to you                    which has been given
demonstrates the cause effect          that you have been livin'
 
Over and over             the truth these examples set
in daily life         the things you must not forget
when you understand                   that every I must become We
for without Love           you cannot reside eternity
 
These are the things             promised to Loves Bride
the joys of Life         and working side by side
a perfect Union              of those joined heart to heart
to bring forth Life          and in its sharing have a part

Premium Member A Rising Sun Turns Gold

A red sun rising soon turns gold
So quiet this morning
Nothing new being told
Until the woodpecker's loud warning

Heavenly Father what a beautiful sky
A pale blue blanket cover 
Kissed by the sun's golden touch
A stillness, quiet lightly does hovers  

A dove awakes the crow
Then a songbird greets the day
There's a mockingbird in the distance
Singing his song while at play

Slowly mankind begins to awaken
As the sun almost touches pines.
Those tops that are high reaching the skyline
Soon the sun will reach its designed define
   

Ecclesiastes 1:5

The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he (it) arose.

God intentionally confined the oceans within certain parameters, establishing coastlines and boundaries they cannot surpass (Psalm 104:9; Jeremiah 5:22). Even amidst powerful storms, the seas obey God’s appointed borders. This demonstrates God’s sovereignty and reminds us that the forces of nature ultimately answer to Him.

Premium Member Reverse Psychology

Mark Twain wrote how Tom had Huck paint his fence
using reverse psychology on him.
Tom bamboozled Huck, yet in his defense,
Huckleberry Finn was known to be dim.

Tom baited Huck by acting possessive,
taking great pains to express his delight.
He made painting the fence seem impressive,
taunting that Huck could never get it right.

At first, Huck laughed; then, he begged for a chance
to whitewash the whole fence and prove Tom wrong.
Tom planned on tricking Huck well in advance:
bruising his pride, until Huck went along.

Such reverse psychology demonstrates
how the subconscious mind manipulates.

Premium Member The Sexiest Man In the Room

I observe the man
whose eyes sparkle with humor.
His robust laughter
demonstrates abundant joy.
I can also tell
he doesn’t keep things buried;
he is not afraid
to show who he is because
he knows well his worth,
and yet he’s humble enough
to let others shine.

Nearer to him now,
I sense from his voice and stance
he relishes life
and inspires great confidence.
Though he’s not gorgeous,
his features are quite striking.
His scent is manly.
I can’t be the only one
wishing to be on his arm!

Premium Member Small-Minded People

Just how small can small-minded be?
Small-minded is that thing you see
That walks with small steps constantly
But goes nowhere you want to be.

Small are their own small-minded thoughts
That resonate from nil to naught
And traverse in small-minded ways
Self-centered trips through sterile days.

Small are the hopes and dreams they claim
Which lose perspective frame-by-frame.
It's just a small-time picture show
That demonstrates how less they know.

Short-sighted is small-minded's friend
like two absurds placed end to end.
They primp and preen to their content,
Nothing to flaunt - not gained nor lent.

And, small minds are far-sighted cursed
That go from bad to worse to worst.
For them far-sighted, heaven knows,
Is that which lies just past their nose.

The small-minded have egos too
But lose sight of what, why and who.
They rumble in small-minded ways
And shuffle through a self-made maze.

Some with small minds resolve to see
A "heads will roll" philosophy
But if they did what there would be
Is their own mindless entity.

The small-minded do not go far.
They like to think how great they are
But when it comes to finding fame
Just side show stuff - a no name game.

If you meet small minds on the street
Don't call them out but just repeat
Small minded's slogan of their ilk:
"Small-mindedness is Mother's Milk."

Premium Member Patrician

One of a kind there'll never be another you
what you hold in your heart to them have held true
I've looked upon the core of what you store within
for me you exist as unique among all men
 
The song that you sing it's truths held so high
oppression of those different wherein injustice lie
to the robing of nature her diversity and vest
in a poem of tone inequities do you suggest
 
The external show some may just see as art
but what you paint and sing and write demonstrates your heart
I told you early on I judge not by outward show
but what is seated inside that I wish to know
 
All that you paint on canvas and in song
demonstrates reality and courses right and wrong
what you depict sets forth description of your mind
a spectrum of vision coloring inferior to whats fine
 
I even see the sweet things you so carefully thought hid
been learning to read have I ever since I were a kid
When you looked across that room what did you think you saw
for the night before I saw your minds cognition all
 
A woman loves a man for who he is inside
the character of his self that he can never hide
for what he thinks and does demonstrates his care
his ability to display and with it others share
 
Do never judge me like the world which in you live
For the greatest teacher does truthful insight give
what is truly frightening is that I scare myself
that vision is so clear unlike minds so full of stealth
 
One who is wise will choose a man for his heart
that is his essence where communion can start
perception is his own gift where he chooses to live
to share it with another its benefaction give

Toddlers Storm The Capitol 
*
Sitting on the beach
I watch and listen
To the ocean waves
Caress the shore
*
The Beauty of Nature
Keeps me steadfast in my
Fervent Prayer for Redemption
*
I beseech You 
To touch the
Hearts and Souls
Of the burgeoning leaders
In commerce and government
*
Enlighten them to a world
Where greed will destroy
All we treasure
*
Let the toddlers of our world
Keeping their legs wide apart
Hesitant between each step
Jerking from side to side
Walk to the capitals 
And stage a massive sit-down 
Where no one moves
Where we all  watch
*
As the toddler sit-down  
Gloriously demonstrates 
Our innate desire and will to keep 
The future healthy and viable
